Portrait Documentaries
Nikeata Thompson
I am extremely grateful to have contributed to this portrait documentary of choreographer and actor Nikeata Thompson. Operating under high-level creative direction from Rakuto Makino, I had creative liberty in the editing room. From shaping the visuals, selecting the sound to crafting the final look in color grading, I brought the energy and emotion of her artistic journey to the screen.

Gabriel Del Busto
For this portrait documentary of my friend Gabriel, I took complete creative and technical control of the entire production pipeline, handling initial concept, interview direction, cinematography and editing on my own. The concept allowed me to capture an intimate, honest narrative without relying on AI or automated processes. The result is a fully self-produced project built on true visual craftsmanship and genuine human connection.

For the jewelry brand Juuls & Juuls, I was given complete creative freedom over the editing process to craft an artistic, visually driven piece. Designed entirely without live location audio, the atmosphere relies on a carefully curated soundscape, combining subtle music with layered library SFX that complement the visual aesthetics. From the initial cut and sound design to the final color grade, I brought every element together to create a polished, atmospheric brand film.
